It was all ego-driven intellectual rubbish. Loads of plagiarism. Guys were poseurs. Tried too hard. Didn't even rhyme.

Of course you're trolling because no thinker would say something that stupid about Eliot or Pound.
To appreciate Eliot you would possess a nuanced sense of history, mortality and time. It would be good to at least reference the footnotes in Latin an Greek which are necessary and essential. It would also help to hear him read his own poetry, especially The Wasteland which leaps off the page once you hear him. Really profound poetry.

You can find the rest of his own reading if you look a bit.
Pound doesn't wow me as much but he is undeniably a poetic force.
Go anesthetize yourself
You're obviously trolling, but a lot of people don't like those two for perfectly legitimate reasons.
